Understanding Theologiocracy is a collection of nine essays plus an introductory chapter. The essays are independent studies on different conceptual issues involved in the ways of understanding religious and spiritual practices in general. The term theologiocracy has been coined by the author to characterise the working of religion and spirituality in the modern,secularised world. Theologiocracy, thus, signifies a rule of theology as something different from the rule of theo, i.e., theocracy. Unlike the case of theocracy (where political rule is controlled directly by particular religion), in the secular socio-political scenario, religiosity/spirituality takes a formal backseat for an indirect control of the secular world through the promotion of theological interests. It tries to argue that theologiocractic ways are found even in the case of secularism, as it is operating in the modern liberal democracy. Theologiocracy is a situation where different theologies are seen operating simultaneously for controlling the socio-political power in favour of different theological (religious) communities. In a typical theocracy, there will be a single religion to control political power, whereas in a secular democracy, many religious and related forces/interests take control of power directly and indirectly. It is to characterise such an indirect or disguised operation of different theological and religious-community interests that the term theologiocracy has been framed. Secularism, seen as a disguised theocracy (crypto-theocracy) , has been proved to be logically inconceivable and historically unavailable. A race for supremacy or superiority of theological ideals and promises seems to be the basic level from which every theologiocratic religion operates. Since the urge for power and supremacy is so peculiar to every theologiocratic religiosity, no domain of human imagination is free from the imprints of theologiocracy, especially the domain of so-called secular socio-political processes. A theoretical analysis of the political nature of religious and spiritual practices is a running theme for the different essays of this book.

This book explores the neglected significance of the doctrine of the Trinity for the understanding of human law. Through interaction with the thought of Jurgen Moltmann, Oliver O'Donovan and Thomas Aquinas, it argues that human law is called to play a positive but limited role in maintaining "shallow justice" and relative peace. Human law is overshadowed by the work of the Son, included in the purposes of the Father, and used as an instrument by the Holy Spirit. However, the Spirit works in those who are in Christ to effect "deep justice," a work of sanctification which culminates in glorification--the experience of perfect, free, willing obedience in heaven. Thinking about law in the light of the Trinity enables us to understand its role, its purposes, and its limits.

69 years after having gained a hard-won and much cherished Independence, can we really say that we have made giant steps towards a healthy India? Have we been able to ensure a healthy life and adequate health-care for our millions – especially the marginalised? Are the numerous celebrated Super-Speciality Hospitals, with their proud teams of highly qualified specialist doctors, their Five-star ambiences extruding an aura of comfort for the patients, and their state-of-the-art imported equipment, an indicator of our having achieved high standards in health-care? Does health-care mean disease-care alone? Rather, does it not mean ensuring clean environment, safe drinking water, balanced food in adequacy, good hygiene and sanitation and good lifestyle habits – so that the root causes of diseases may be eradicated? What should be the priorities in medical education, and what aptitudes and attitudes should we look for, and foster in aspiring doctors? What are the good practices in health-care obtaining in the developed world, which we may emulate? A committed professional with over three decades of tireless service in the field of medicine and medical teaching, shares his thoughts on these and much more… A must-read for every doctor, every medical student, everyone who is health-conscious and for everyone who has the interests of society and his fellow men at heart…
